Precisely the sort of gracious response I expected.

Again, of course, it is not you at all but me. My apologies.

It is, of course, “around” as in “I am going around in circles here.”

OK. I have allowed you to speculate including your speculation that all problems stem from my difficulty in seeing how this would work and not any problem inherent in the present system.

Also that is what I would call a workaround and we all know the root of that word.

We were talking about multicam here and even if I put it in the primary the audio and the video are still linked, are they not?

It’s not a question of tools. In many instances I need to have audio and video completely unconnected and to be able to manipulate them in the timeline at will in any way I choose. I don’t see how that happens in the present magnetic timeline in a multicam situation. They are many times I do not want -no, can’t have – a clip to relate to another clip in any way.

Yes, I’ve played around extensively with those and many other features of X. Which is why I cannot wrap my mind around multicam working in any viable way with an inflexible, undisableable (that may the first instance of that particular word in the English language) magnetic timeline.

[Bill Davis] “simply a matter of code calls and interface construction choices” (?!)
Sorry Bill but that is elevated, completely aside from the point, and does not even begin to address the issue I have raised except in the “they’re working on it” way.
[Bill Davis] “So to enable EVERYTHING you’re asking for”
You are seeming to indicate here that my needs are unreasonable. As I said those examples only scratch the surface.

In the present magnetic timeline configuration I do not understand how I can have say six angles all with different audio (as in coming from different mics) and designate one of those angles to supply the audio for all of those angles. Until it becomes necessary to use one of the other audio angles on a given clip or clips. Or how, if audio and video are connected to one another, I would grab a sound effect from a completely different multiclip that is forty-five minutes down the timeline and move it back those forty-five minutes for use with another multiclip. Or how I would use the video only from one multiclip over the audio only of another unrelated multiclip. That kind of scratches the surface. As I said, maybe I don’t fully understand.
